Tsubakijima

Aomatsushima and Tsubakijima are the beautiful islands at the tip of the Hirota Peninsula and the southernmost tip of Iwate Prefecture. It is famous as a breeding ground for black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed cats, and groups of black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed black-tailed cats gather here from April to July. Tsubakijima used to have a colony of camellias on one side, but due to the breeding of black-tailed black-tailed gulls, it has now withered and is now a bare island. Aomatsushima is designated as a prefectural scenic spot and natural monument, and Tsubakishima is designated as a national natural monument.
